GMail Manager is a terrific tool and well worth a donation to Tod Long.

You know a tool is terrific when you feel the pain when something goes wrong. And you *will* feel the pain when something breaks because Google introduces a new feature or changes an old one. Tod and the other add-on developers are at the mercy of Google and in constant catch-up.

The current version of GMail Manager has broken snippets. As best I can determine from massive searching, Google Buzz is the culprit and disabling it is (potentially) the temporary solution to getting your snippets back. (Buzz is one of the choices in your GMail Settings)

Unfortunately, Google appears to be strong-arming people about keeping Buzz enabled. I.e., if you disable it, then there are dire warnings about losing your Google Profile, assuming you created one at some time.

In any case, for those of you who are trying GMail Manager for the first time and had unfortunate timing, I encourage you to give it another try.

In the meantime, you can bet that Tod is doing his level best to fix the broken snippets problem and to get GMail Manager back to its usual pristine state.

You go, Tod!
